Hosea 13:2 in Context — Hosea 13
1 CUANDO Ephraim hablaba, hubo temor; fué ensalzado en Israel; mas pecó en Baal, y murió.
2 Y ahora añadieron á su pecado, y de su plata se han hecho según su entendimiento, estatuas de fundición, ídolos, toda obra de artífices; acerca de los cuales dicen á los hombres que sacrifican, que besen los becerros.
3 Por tanto serán como la niebla de la mañana, y como el rocío de la madrugada que se pasa; como el tamo que la tempestad arroja de la era, y como el humo que de la chimenea sale.
4 Mas yo soy Jehová tu Dios desde la tierra de Egipto: no conocerás pues Dios fuera de mí, ni otro Salvador sino á mí.
